Legal analysts said the outcome was unpredictable. “A lot of people were focussing on how gruelling the interrogation on Roux was, and drawing an inference from that. But having one or two vocal judges doesn’t give you an indication into what the other three are thinking,” said Kelly Phelps, law professor at the University of Cape Town.
“Simply because they argue vociferously with one side, doesn’t mean they necessarily agree or disagree with that side. We can’t know where this stands right now.”
Bloemfontein - State prosecutor Gerrie Nel said on Tuesday he could not comment on the context in which Oscar Pistorius’s advocate Barry Rouxhad told him that he, Roux, was going to "lose".
"No, I can’t. You should speak to Roux about it," Nel told News24, smiling as he wheeled his briefcase across the Supreme Court of Appeal courtyard to the exit.
